CVE-2026-107928 - Vulnerability Details - OpenCVE

A flaw was found in curl. When curl is built with the GnuTLS library, a blocked transmission during communication with a malicious WebSocket server can trigger an out-of-bounds memory read. A malicious server can exploit this flaw to expose sensitive data from neighboring memory buffers or crash the client, leading to information disclosure or a Denial of Service (DoS).

Furthermore, triggering this behavior requires a specific I/O blocking condition during WebSocket communication, making successful exploitation difficult to achieve in practice.", "threat_severity": "Low"}
